What Color Are Your Fingers Today?

[Penman222]

Filled up my medium Lamy 2000 which I recently had tuned and adjusted by Mike Masuyama with DIamine Grape.

[dspeers58]

Visconti Blue, Waterman Blue

[auto winder]

Pelikan 4001 Blue-black on 9 of 10 fingers.

[Centopar]

Apache Sunset. I look like someone with a nasty smoking problem.

No new Kobes?

 

 

Nope! I only have one more that I haven't reviewed and I keep forgetting about it. But soon!

Are you ready now...

 

Then close your eyes and tap your heels together three times...

 

And think to yourself...

 

There's no place like home..there's no place like home..there's no place like home..

[Redonna]

Monteverde Turquoise and PR Purple Mojo. And, considering that I am about to clean out a few pens I expect to add some Lamy black, Diamine Emerald and Noodler Polar Brown to the mix.

[Newjelan]

Pilot Iroshizuku Shin-Kai - had forgotten how much I like this ink.

[bernardo]

Waterman black... big time...

[bernardo]

For the first time in a while, my fingers are....CLEAN

Some years ago I bought a bottle of Parker Penman Sapphire on eBay. ( It only cost me $6 + $5, but don't tell anybody...)

The lid wasn't on 100% tight...

 

[lahlahlaw]

Black Swan/Australian Roses from yesterday with a hint of Diamine Blue/black from today

[inkstainedruth]

Black and blue again....

 

but not ink (ouch!)

 

In the immortal words of the guy who was my husband's best man at the wedding:

"Don't DO that!"

 

Me, today, it's Noodler's Liberty's Elysium (and in some of the weirdest places) and Organics Studio Emily Dickinson (which is actually from filling a pen *yesterday*...).

So far, anyway. But the day is still young.

For a short while I had Organics Studios Lab Series #10 on my fingers but it washed off nicely.

 

Still have a stain from an ancient unknown black/blue ink after helping a gentleman last weekend change out a nib on a Waterman 100 year.

[Penman222]

Visconti Blue. I had to transfer a new bottle of the stuff to a decent glass bottle, so I poured it into an old cleaned out Waterman ink bottle. I did a very good job, but got some on the fingers - darn. I am using it in my Lamy 2000 medium, a good match.

The worst part is it's under my thumbnail, but don't worry, when I hit it with the driver's bit it poked a small hole, so the pressure doesn't build up......

 

Now if it would just quit oozing...

 

As far as ink, a bit of Pelikan blue (great for work!) but most has washed of at this point...

[F104]

Organics Studio Edgar Allan Poe Raven Red. Wore gloves when I loaded my Safari with it, but...

 

It would seem I did not get all of it off the section with the paper towel. Not to worry: the skin on my middle finger did an admirable job of mopping up.

 

Added bonus: given that nice, natural blood red color, it doesn't look out of place on my finger at all.

[sargetalon]

Today was a big pen cleaning day for me. My fingers are an odd combination of Waterman's Harmonious Green, Serenity Blue, and Mysterious Purple as well as Aurora Black and Iroshizuku Kon-Peki.

[Newjelan]

Iroshizuku Yama Budo - I look like I've been eating cherries or beetroot.

[79spitfire]

Diamine Deep Magenta. Noodler's Konrad pens just fit in the 30ml openings, and cause the ink to overflow when first filling from the bottle....
